　　[答案与解析]

　　(I) 1. not后面加only。本句使用的是not only…but also句型。 2. it→them。此处代词指代的是markets,故用them。

　　3. which→where。先行词market指地点,关系副词在从句中作状语,故用where。 4. others→other。other在此处作定语,修饰things。 5. 去掉第二个and。动词不定式短语作状语。 6. are→is。本句主语是market,故谓语动词用单数。 7. dislike→like。根据前面分句语义,此处谓语动词应该表达"喜欢"。8. best→most。此处是形容词的最高级。9. 本行无错。10. look→looking。分词作伴随状语。

　　(II) 1. 本行无错。 2. every→each。every常用来指三个或三个以上的人或物,each 可以用来指两个或两个以上的人或物。 3. ear→ears。此处的名词应该用复数形式。 4. is→are。本句的主语是differences,故谓语动词用复数形式。

　　5. easy→easily。副词修饰动词。

　　6. Before→After。根据上下文,本句的语义是:亚洲大象被捕获以后是很容易驯服的。 7. become前面加to。动词不定式作表语。 8. treating→treated。此处指大象"被对待"。 9. and→or。whether...or...是固定短语。 10. 去掉that。本句是简单句,that多余。
